Sharing Local WordPress Meetup Experience – February 2017 Edition

Just got a thought to share about my WordPress meetup experience regularly and spreading more about WordPress and contributing in another new way.

I am thinking to share my experience about WordPress meetup every month which I believe will be very much helpful for everyone. Sharing such experience will be an experiment for me at the initial stage.

Started the day with a thought of WordPress and meetup organizing locally that helped me to conserve the awesome WordPress feeling in my mind and maintaining the same feeling the whole day.

Experience is the biggest asset of life

I do have an intense feeling to help people with anything which I could work out with. Being a passionate Blogger & WordPress Enthusiast, I would always love to share about WordPress and its related services and this usually helps me to learn more about WordPress through my participation in local meetups.

Today, the meetup is organized nearby from my place of living which took around 15 minutes to reach the meetup venue. The venue for WordPress meetup is sponsored by Ganpat University that has occupied around 50+ attendees. A Special Thanks to Ganpat University for providing such an awesome venue.

We are having 2 awesome speakers ready with their knowledge sharing sessions. Both Priyanka Behera and Nirmal Desai was awesome in delivering a very much informative session about WordPress Theme Unit Testing and Contributing to WordPress – Part 1 respectively.

Summary of WordPress Meetup experience

Priyanka Behera – WordPress Theme Unit Testing

The first session started by Priyanka about how and why we need to perform theme testing and explained about its importance.

She has divided the theme testing into 3 different groups that helped the attendees to better understand the group of theme testing and focus that particular group based on their requirement.

Client project themes,

ThemeForest themes, and

WordPress.ORG themes

She has also provided a basic idea about few of the WordPress theme testing plugins as well as WordPress debugging plugin which made attendees more clear about the topic.

After the session, we had a Q&A where most of the attendees are interested in knowing more about Developer WordPress plugin and use which is demonstrated by Priyanka Behera in a wonderful way.

Nirmal Desai – Contributing to WordPress | Part 1

After a quick refreshments break, Nirmal Desai has started his session with explaining importance about the contribution to WordPress and the number of ways with which an individual can contribute to WordPress irrespective of being technical or non-technical.

He has shared his experience & feeling about WordPress contribution. Also, we have viewed the WordPress.ORG profile of Nirmal Desai and got more learning about the badges, value and its importance.

After finishing with both the sessions, all the attendees had a group photo and some WordPress Swags:). Placed one of the WordPress Swag on my laptop and it feels really awesome.

For me,WordPress is my living and its a poetry for me which allows me to work passionately with WordPress. It’s really amazing to be a part of local WordPress meetup and just finalized to share such awesome with you folks!
